The official Valorant twitter posted:
In an hour we're shipping a hotfix for Vanguard to +up its compatibility with cheat-vulnerable drivers. Most of the previously blocked drivers should now work. Some egregious ones will cause the game not to start but now very few will be blocked outright. Thanks for the feedback.
Riot Arkem the anti-cheat lead added:
To get the new version you'll need to launch VALORANT and the patcher will update you. After that a reboot will be required to get the full effect.
One thing to note is that the "Interception" mouse/keyboard driver is still not supported but instead of blocking it we will not let the game launch if it is loaded.
Sorry to the people out there who found themselves mouseless for a moment there!
In the future we're going to prefer non-blocking solutions to security issues/cheating vectors. We may still need to block drivers from time to time but it'll be our last resort.
We will prefer a non-invasive solution if one exists, including stopping the game from launching.
